After several months of nominations, 26 days of voting on finalists and about 8,000 votes, we have arrived at the conclusion of the 2011 Readers' Choice Awards for Budget Travel.
But just because the voting is over and the winners have been announced is no reason to stop thinking about what makes a good budget airline or frequent-flier program. Along with the announcement of each winner is a link where you can post your thoughts about this year's Readers' Choice Awards or any aspect of budget air travel and frequent-flier benefits. Please weigh in on the winner pages with thoughtful comments and opinions rather than attacks.
